QBWA takes Qatar’s women investors to the global stage

The Qatari Businesswomen Association (QBWA) has strengthened its international partnerships and efforts to promote women's participation in investment and entrepreneurship by participating in the ninth UNCTAD World Investment Forum 2026 held in Doha from October 25 to 27. The forum provided QBWA with a platform to highlight the importance of increasing women's involvement in investment decisions, business development, and economic growth.

A key highlight of the association's participation was the co-organisation of a session titled 'Women Who Invest: Mobilizing Female Capital for the Future', in collaboration with UNCTAD. The session brought together women investors, entrepreneurs, and business leaders to explore ways of encouraging more women to become active investors and capital allocators.

An important outcome of the partnership was the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between QBWA and UNCTAD, establishing a framework for continued cooperation through joint initiatives in women's entrepreneurship, investment, capacity building, and international business engagement.
